About Me (Bioish):

    I was born in Duluth, Minnesota, and lived in Brimson for a good part of my life. I lived with my Mom there until she moved to Virginia, and a year there before I went to stay with my Dad in Tennessee in 4th grade. I've lived in Tennessee since then.
    I got into Electronic Dance Music after my first rave at MTAC, (Middle Tennessee Anime Convention) in the Spring of 2010. I started on Hardcore, and jumped into Hardstyle Immediately, and have been in love ever since. I like both types, Hard and Nu, and produce as well. I've been mixing and producing ever since I found Virtual DJ and FL Studio, and am planning on investing into Turntables soon. I do NOT believe this makes me any less of a DJ, because if there's one thing you learn from pointing and clicking to mix, it's efficiency and theory rule. [[ TIP: A good clean mix is important. If you break the flow of motion in the crowd, you have to build it back up again. Get fancy if you can, but don't fail your audience.]]
    I enjoy mixing Hardcore, Trance, Hardstyle, Nu Style, Happy Hardcore, Dubstep, DnB, Electro House, and House in general. I do mixes on request as well, although maybe not if my DJ/Production career takes off. Get it before it's hot, and it'll be all the better to have when it is ;)
   
    I enjoy art (Photography and Digital Art mostly). I still like rock, metal, and some more mainstream genres too (Mainstream is a genre of it's own... Or should be), and will listen to just about anything at least once. I'll also try anything once, get sober, and try it again. I've been in almost every eastern state, and plan on busting into the Vegas and Florida scene soonafter my take-off (Which will inevitably be coming...) I'm also soon to be at MTSU as a Music Industry Major.
  
    This entry will grow with time. That's all I've got for now. =]
